The branches on this snowy mountain are not as easy to collect as those in the snowy forest below, especially since Su Yuan needs a large amount. For safety reasons, everyone has to split into two teams.
One team, led by Shishi, was responsible for cutting down trees, while the other team, led by Long, brought the cut down trees back to the cave of the Spider Lady tribe.
“Clatter, clatter…”
"What's that sound?"
Su Yuan, who had just finished cutting down a tree, heard a strange sound coming from nearby. Mao Ye beside him twitched his ears and immediately pointed to the top of the cliff.
"The sound came from above!"
"Let's go and take a look."
There was no snow covering the surroundings of the rock wall, and the source of the sound sounded like that of water. After thinking for a moment, Su Yuan decided to take everyone forward to take a look.
After climbing up this slope, the view in front of you becomes much wider. In front of you is a long valley with towering snow-capped mountain tops on both sides.
A stream flowed over from afar, with some small stones piled in it. The snow melted, and green grass grew in between. If you look closely, you can even see wisps of white smoke.
“Is this a hot spring?”
Su Yuan walked forward and touched the flowing stream water with his hand. It was icy cold, but not bone-chillingly cold. It seemed that there was indeed a hot spring at the source.
“The water here is so clear!”
Mao Ye and the others were also very surprised. When they scooped up some and were about to drink it, Su Yuan beside them quickly grabbed her ears.
"It hurts, it hurts...Su Yuan, what are you doing?"
"You can't just drink water in the wild. There are unclean things in it."
Normally, snow water is boiled for drinking in the camp. Su Yuan dares to drink it only after it has been sterilized at high temperature. However, this natural wild hot spring water has certain risks.
"Unclean things? All right then."
Although she stared at the clear stream water in her hands for a long time and couldn't see anything unclean, since Su Yuan said so, she had to pour out the water and stand up again.
The other beast girls around him also gave up the idea of drinking from the stream and surrounded Su Yuan, waiting.
"Let's go and take a look ahead. By the way, have you ever seen a stream with smoke like this before?"
Everyone shook their heads, only Pan Yue raised his head proudly and said, "Of course, we have seen it before when the Black Sheep Witch took us to other tribes."
"Oh? The tribe you are talking about is the Huangxue tribe?"
"Not too far away, just on a high mountain near the Desolate Snow Mountain. At that time, the Black Sheep Witch took us there to trade their Fiery Warmth Stone."
Warming stone?
This is probably also a rare item. Su Yuan looked at Pan Yue with some excitement and asked, "Then which direction is the tribe you mentioned? Is it far from here?"
"Oh, well, a few years ago the Black Sheep Witch said that because they stole the holy water from heaven, they incurred the wrath of the God of Fire and were all burned to death by the heavenly fire."
"Burn...burned to death?"
Su Yuan was confused. Could this guy be talking about the hot springs in the crater? Wait, could this hot spring also be from the crater?
He quickly looked around, fortunately everything was covered with snow, and he did not see the bowl-shaped mountain.
"You need a Heat Stone too? There are still some in her house if you help us rescue the Black Sheep Witch."
